With Litesizer DIA 500, our dynamic image analyzer, you can easily and reliably characterize the size and shape of particles via analysis of their direct images. In just one step, quickly switch among three dispersion units – wet, dry, and free-fall – to access excellent dispersion of nearly any sample. Rely on automated features and conduct measurements with only minimal training.

That’s particle analysis at the touch of a button.

Key features

One measurement gives you the size and shape of particles

One measurement gives you the size and shape of particles

  • Measure the size and shape of almost any sample with its broad particle size range 0.8 µm to 8000 µm
  • Detect single outlier particles with our dynamic image analyzer in populations counted in millions
  • Use a market-leading WET dispersion range up to 2500 µm
  • Replace sieve analysis with fully compatible and fast dynamic image analysis
Kalliope software optimizes your measurements

Kalliope software optimizes your measurements

  • Get going in just three clicks
  • Analyze size, shape, and image in one digital space with Kalliope's one-page workflow
  • Operate all of your Anton Paar particle sizing instruments from Kalliope
Your operator’s safety is our priority

Your operator’s safety is our priority

  • Stay safe with a safety cover that prevents toxic or explosive sample spread
  • Know that your dynamic image analyzer can’t overheat: It recognizes there’s enough liquid in the system before sonication switches on
  • Be sure that any toxic or explosive samples are contained due to automatic suction check
  • Comply with relevant safety standards, including IP41(for risks that are not covered in EN 61010:2010, we use ISO 12100:2011)
One dynamic image analyzer, three dispersion units

One dynamic image analyzer, three dispersion units

  • Measure various samples with three dispersion units: Liquid Flow (wet), Dry Jet (compressed air), and Free Fall (gravitational fall)
  • Switch between dispersion units with the Quick-Click feature in just one move; no need to fumble around with cables, tubes, and pipes
Automated features save you time

Automated features save you time

  • Stop worrying about setting the optimal sample feeding rate – Litesizer DIA 500 does this for you
  • Automate the filing, draining, and rinsing of the dispersion liquid so you can focus on more important tasks
  • Optimize your data inflow by setting filtering of particles of interest (multiple options available) making the Litesizer DIA 500 a true automated dynamic image analyzer
  • “…the DIA 500 has an inspiring resolution – you see a few coarse particles in a matrix of thousands of small particles…”

    Dr. Morten Schonert, Manager Research Projects, Automotive Catalyst, Umicore AG & Co. KG

  • "Only with reliable quality control tools like the Anton Paar’s Litesizer DIA 500 we can craft the powders our clients deserve"

    Bartosz Morończyk, Application Engineer, AMAZEMET
